In addition to fixing that file, please also remove python3-sip dependency. You may want to depend on python3-pyqt5 instead, as it is used in this package. I am bumping the severity to important because sip4 is RC-buggy [1] and I am going to remove it from Debian. [1]: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1059648 -- Dmitry Shachnev
